excellent location helpful host central location front door buzzing noise plug socket
the location was excellent. i could easily walk to the shops, restaurants, and bars (it's very central). the host, ken, offered helpful recommendations for places to visit. i really appreciated that.
my room was next to the front door. i was often woken up by the sound of people coming and going. i also found the electrics a bit sketchy. buzzing noises came from the plug sockets near the tv.
